The sixth season of FX’s original comedy horror series What We Do in the Shadows will be its final season. The report (via Vulture) came a few months after the Season 5 finale. No release date has been set yet for Season 6, though it is expected to premiere sometime in 2024.
The vampires say goodbye to Staten Island
Created by Jemaine Clement and based on the 2014 film he created alongside Taika Waititi, What We Do in the Shadows is a mockumentary-style series following the nightly adventures of vampire roommates Nandor (Kayvan Novak), Laszlo (Matt Berry), Colin Robinson (Mark Proksch), and Nadja (Natasia Demetriou) as they plan to take over Staten Island with the help of their human familiar Guillermo de la Cruz (Harvey Guillén).
The official synopsis for What We Do in the Shadows reads: “A documentary-style look into the daily (or rather, nightly) lives of a group of vampires in Staten Island who have “lived” together for hundreds and hundreds of years.”
The series, which debuted to critical acclaim back in 2019, has earned a number of Emmy nominations and has won a GLAAD Media Award for the Best Comedy Series category.
While plot details for Season 6 remain under wraps, it is expected to expound on what happened to Guillermo during Season 5 after his struggles with having been turned partly vampiric, with Laszlo using his blood to do some grim experiments.
FX previously renewed the series through Season 6 back in 2022.
What We Do in the Shadows is executive produced by Clement, Waititi, Paul Simms, Stefani Robinson, Sam Johnson, Garrett Basch, and Eli Bush. The series is produced by FX Productions.
